In a nested loop, the outer loop executes faster than the inner loop.
False.
It is not necessary to initialize counter variable.
False.
One limitation of the for loop is that only one variable may be initialized in the initialization expression.
False.
The break statement causes a loop to stop the current iteration and begin the next one.
False.
The continue statement causes a terminated loop to resume.
False.
The cout statement in the following program segment will display 5: int x = 5; cout << ++x;
False.
The do-whole loop is a pretest loop.
False.
The for loop is a post test loop.
False.
The operand of the increment and the decrement operators can be any valid mathematical expression.
False.
To calculate the total number of iterations of a nested loop, add the number of iterations of all the loops.
False.
A variable may be defined in the initialization expression of the for loop.
True.
All three of the for loops expressions may be omitted.
True.
In a nested loop, the break statement only interrupts the loop it is placed in.
True.
In a nested loop, the inner loop foes through all of its iterations for every single iteration of the outer loop.
True.
The cout statement in the following program segment will display 5: int x = 5; cout << x++;
True.
The while loop is a pretest loop.
True.
Variables may be defined inside the body of a loop.
True.

True.
A ______ is a variable that is initialized to some starting value, usually zero, and then has numbers added to it in each iteration of a loop.
accumulator An accumulator is a variable that is initialized to some starting value, usually zero, and then has numbers added to it in each iteration of a loop.
The statement or block that is repeated is known as the ______ of the loop.
body The statement or block that is repeated is known as the body of the loop.
The ______ statement causes a loop to terminate immediately.
break
The ______ statement causes a loop to skip the remaining statements in the current iteration.
continue
A ______ is a variable that counts the number of times a loop repeats.
counter A counter is a variable that counts the number of times a loop repeats.
The ______ loop always iterates at least once.
do-while The do-while loop always iterates at least once.
The______ loop is ideal for situations that require a counter.
for The for loop is ideal for situations that require a counter.
To ______ a value means to increase it by one and to ______ a value means to decrease by one.
increment, decrement To increment a value means to increase it by one and to decrement a value means to decrease by one.
A loop that does not have a way of stopping is called an ______ loop.
infinite or endless A loop that does not have a way of stopping is called an endless loop.
Inside the for loop's parentheses, the first expression is the ______, the second expression is the ______, and the third expression is the ______.
initialization, test, update Inside the for loop's parentheses, the first expression is the initialization, the second expression is the test, and the third expression is the update.
Each repetition of a loop is known as a ______.
iteration Each repetition of a loop is known as an iteration.

postfix When the increment or decrement operator is placed after the operand (or to the operands right), the operand is being used in the postfix mode.
